If you weren’t able to attend, please be on the lookout for those presentations coming up on the podcast!This week, Rebecca discusses the lessons learned from her presenters on day 2 of the summit: Elaine Taylor-Klaus and Diane Dempster of ImpactParents honed in on complex behaviors in kids and how tools to cope with things like ADHD and anxiety translate well for all children. Things to consider: Is it naughty or neurological? Meet your child where they are at and set them up for success. What motivates your child? Rebekah Maddux-El Hakum spoke about marriage and relationships and teaches us to be more intentional with our words. “Never” and “Always” tend to be trigger words for an argument. She also discussed the stages our children go through and how we can’t compare one child to another and expect them to be the same at the same ages. Allana Robinson taught us about how the brain works. She dives into thought, reasoning, and executive functioning in kids. Consistency and predictability will lead to a better sense of security in our kids. Judy Herman discusses marriage and navigating emotions. Be curious with your partner about how they feel, it pulls you away from being judgmental. Learning to empathize will go a long way. In regards to choosing a partner, we pick, project, and provoke, which relates to your relationship with your parents when you were a child. Dr. Laura Froyen teaches us that reframing triggers can create an opportunity to grow and learn. We can “reparent” ourselves and learn things we did not learn as children. Learning coping skills when you are calm will help you when you are in the midst of the conflict.
